no one has thought about being able to build and sell an affordable blue water boat up until now? wow what a new Idea. I did notice his Idea of having someone else make there small fortune building this boat by spending someone else's large fortune. he has the answer to building the inexpensive boat. the Idea that all the other builders have never thought of. $175 k is a pipe dream, the parts and materials to build a 40' boat will exceed that number before you even start the build.
